“Kash had a wonderful time staying with Briana, her family and his new friend Duke! Briana sent several pictures daily and kept up updated on his eating, playing and sleeping routine. We knew he was getting the love and attention as if he was home.”
About: I have had a dog my entire life. When my last one passed, my heart was broken and I haven’t been able to get another one. I watched my daughter’s dog for a year but took her back about a year ago to Idaho). I work from home and it’s very quiet without any four-legged friends to keep me company throughout the day. I would love to help you out by watching your fur baby (& I can’t lie, it would make my heart happy to do so :)) I work from home and have the flexibility to take them out for walks as needed. I walk multiple times a day & would love to share that with a dog. Because I work from home, I am easily able to give a lot of love to your fur baby so that you can relax and not worry about a thing. I will love them like they are my own!
“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
“Amanda is AMAZING!! She takes all proper precautions to ensure safety of her clients and their fur babies. I met her prior to her keeping Nike but did not need her service at the time. I had an emergency come up and without hesitation she was willing to care for Nike. She sent picture updates and stayed in consistent communication. I thank her so much for alleviating my stress level while I was out of town. Highly recommend”
About: I think dogs are good people. My dogs are family members. Our dogs passed away a little more than a year ago so we are dog sitting for family and friends. My granddaughter suggested checking out Rover and applying to dog sit. We had friends from church go on a 3 week trip and watched their golden doodle. Most gentle dog ever. I can use them for reference if needed. I consider dogs a family member. Always watching a dogs body english to make sure they are comfortable and safe. Currently retired. When dog sitting I usually take them outside once an hour. We walk routinely and when dog sitting we bring them with us. We have two walking routes. A one mile walk through our small neighborhood or go to a park close by and walk by a river. Also used to giving dogs their medication when necessary. The last dog we took care of for 3 weeks needed daily arthritis meds. Pet care to me is as natural as breathing. Always checking their water and food. When dog sitting I never let the dog off the leash. My Aussie, when he was alive, was trained to not leave the yard so a leash was not necessary. But with family dogs and friends dogs I always put a leash on. Our home is dog safe. We do not use pesticides or other harmful chemicals. Even during winter I use pet friendly ice melters for the sidewalk when necessary. As far as trust I have 40 plus years experience with dogs and friends and family trust their dogs with me. Each dog that was with me always selected their own safe spot. We kept a healthy routine of exercise and rest. I watch the dog’s body English for hints of needing rest or exercise. During the day and evening it is not uncommon for me to take them outside every hour. We use water from our water filter. If I will not drink water from the faucet then I believe nether should my dog. My dogs have their own bed. When my Aussie was alive he preferred to nap under a big plant in the living room. Our house is air conditioned for a safe relaxing atmosphere. Dogs cannot get to the trash can. No treats there.
“Highly recommended! We will definitely book our 2 dogs - a Jack Russell and an English Mastiff - again with Michael. He was an amazing care taker and I think our dogs wanted to extend their stay with him! We loved his confidence, how he had different areas in his home and outdoors to allow our dogs to truly have an amazing vacation. Daily video updates and texts were super timely and always appreciated as well. We loved the attention and care he gave our furbabies and will definitely book with him again in the future!”
“Anthony is always great at letting me know what my dog Finnegan is doing, I never have to worry. He is also very accommodating, feel very lucky to have him watch my pup!”
“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”
“By far the best option on here! I’ve now taken my little Pomeranian Woody back to back vacations I’ve been on and it’s been great. Plenty of updates are provided and my dog was truly treated like one of the family all week long! Definitely recommend and will be returning!”
“Brooke was fantastic with our dog, Duke. She sent us daily updates and pictures of Duke and was able to follow his usual schedule. He had lots of outdoor fun. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Jeremy watched our Bear dog for a couple nights and took great care of him. They played, took walks and he even kept Bear happy and busy during a rainy day. Jeremy sent us pictures and videos and was great with communication. He seemed to genuinely care for our pup and our pup was happy hanging out with him. We would definitely book Jeremy again!!”
“Gina was an outstanding host to our dog! This was the first stay away for our 8 month old puppy. She could not have been in better hands! Gina sent many pictures. We knew our puppy had a great stay.”
“Stacey was wonderful. She was very responsive, when I asked a question before my pup’s stay and during. Also sent plenty of pictures and just totally felt comfortable leaving our furry family member with her for a full week!”
